Comments
GlQp-6, St. Charles Oblate Church: Archaeological excavations were conducted around the perimeter of the church prior to its restoration. Investigations revealed a series of fence line. Deeper excavations revealed at least three well defined prehistoric components beneath historical remains. The lowest component, at 60 cm depth, dates to about 1850 BP, while the latest occupation dates to 670 BP. Artifacts and faunal remains were recovered from all three components.
